You're saying that Trump is among those who donated to Yang?

Yang supporters are essentially the Bernie supporters of 2016, and I know quite a few of them. Same mentality, weak-minded, lazy, many book smart with no grit, drive, or street smarts. Many of them have already checked out.

If it was he would have been addressing the GOP`s base. No one is getting more free money than they are.

It's not like i'm going to quit my job at the ole Ford factory just because I got a little extra.
I'll spend it local.

Either way though, it's getting spent.

Who would you rather benefit from it, us or Swiss bankers?

“Free” money is not the answer.

Heck, that's interesting.
Shouldn't you be chasing Beto en masse?
He is going to take away your guns and all.
Yang is just going to give away some grands, that's all.
Yet, there are more Get-Yang than Get-Beto threads around here.

It may seem as if I am complaining, but actually I'm not. This is a very indicative moment, ladies and gentlemen. A presidential candidate wants to give away money, and yet, there is an idea to troll his page into crashing. Not the only such idea, I'm sure. Not to mention all the epithets his followers are getting. As if their behavior is, I don't know, deplorable or something. All they did was apply for those dollars.

When did Yang become so dangerous?

The moment they realized their choice for the next president is in grave danger of not winning because of Yang, and that moment is now.

How did Yang become so dangerous?
By being himself.

Youll find some similarities to Trump. Entrepreneurship that translates into a successful campaign. Doing so much with little money. Having a team that constantly collects data, analyzes it and proceeds with the obtained knowledge. Also, being spontaneous. Relatively unfiltered. Different from the pack, both in form and in substance. But this is where similarities end.

Yang actually cares. And this is where he is similar to Bernie. Bernie has always cared and fought for the underdog. AAs in the sixties, homosexuals in the nineties. Workers all the time. And this is where similarities with Bernie end.

Yang has ideas that are in accordance with the present time and challenges of the near future.

He also has the way to communicate with his supporters effectively. He comes across as very pleasant and engaging human being, one who is able to defend his views in a way that hurts no one. At the same time, he is the person who believes that offense is not given, it is taken. That's why he is ready to forgive without much fanfare, but can also easily explain himself if someone misunderstands his words and finds offense in them.

A couple of months ago, I thought he would be your president. Now I'm even more sure of it.

Hopefully he gives away the money then gets slammed for a campaign violation.

Sheldon Adelson donates $100 million to PACs and in return EXPECTS Israel will continue to be the Federal government’s single largest recipient of $$$$.

Donate to Trump and maybe win a coffee date with Ivanka.

Campaigning is commercialized. Yang took it to the people.
